The site is along the bank of a creek that provided water and there is room for farming. The site is thought to have been abandoned by the early 1400s. The remains of a second structure, Castle A, are adjacent to the Montezuma Castle.
The trail is a 0.3 mile paved loop along the base of a limestone cliff. In a recess in the cliff, about 100 feet up is the castle. The Sinagua people began building this structure in the 1100s.
